So wot's going on then?!!

wafflycat · 2006-03-21T18:09:49+00:00

As said by The Apprentice this very evening, as on his return from place of education he sits in front on the idiot box watching the CG time trial I stayed up into the wee hours to make sure I got on video for him. He gets home form college & parks himself in front of idiot box whilst he devours a large plate of pasta whilst watching the TT. The Apprentice is CSC's number one fan in the universe, and is desperate for a red Bell Meteor II lid (size medium). Indeed one is on order from Wiggle, but delivery keeps being put back... and enquiries to other retailers reveal none in stock in the UK as far as we can tell. yet there, on screen, A Several of cyclists from African nations all in said lids... in red. Note face resembling :-( on offspring and comment of "So wot's going on then? How come my helmet can be got in Namibia but not in the UK!" He's not a happy bunny....

II lid (size medium). Indeed one is on order from Wiggle, but delivery keeps

Because Namibia brew one of Southern Africas best beers? Because
putting said helmets on people on telly is better publicity-wise than
not doing so and putting them on Nathan?
